The Plunge is a community event, bringing together public officials, schools, businesses, churches, and many others to support kids.

The cost is $25 ($10 for under age 18) or FREE by raising sponsorships; 100% of the proceeds benefit youth and environmental education programs. There will be a bonfire and all plungers receive a free t-shirt and lunch. The depth of plunge is a person choice, from a dip of the toe to a full-body immersion. Prizes are awarded for best costumes and top fundraisers (individual, community team, and school team).
